Podcasts about resting

My neighbor Sam returned home one night without his car. “It was stolen,” he told his wife; then added: “I’m going to sleep, I’ll sort it out tomorrow.” His wife was flabbergasted. She couldn’t understand how Sam could be so calm, but he explained: “What else can I do? Panicking won’t make any difference.” My ever-sensible neighbor could see there was no point worrying. He trusted that the authorities would be able to find his missing car later—which they did. Did the apostle Peter feel likewise after being thrown into prison (Acts 12:4)? He was likely to face execution, yet the usually impulsive disciple “was sleeping between two soldiers” (v. 6). The angel had to “[strike] Peter on the side” to wake him up (v. 7)—suggesting that he was completely calm and at peace. Was it because he knew his life was in God’s hands? Verses 9 and 11 suggest that it wouldn’t have mattered whether he was rescued or not; perhaps he recalled the assurance of salvation and glory that Jesus had given him (Matthew 19:28), as well as Christ’s call to simply “follow me” and not worry about what would happen to him (John 21:22). No matter what we’re facing today, we can trust that God holds our future—both on earth and in heaven—in His mighty hands. Perhaps then we can more easily sleep in peace.

FULL SHOW: Should Aaron Glenn be fired? The Knicks resting after the NBA Cup, Giants-Raiders will have huge ramifications down the road, and much more.

Evan, Shaun, and Tommy give their thoughts on the Knicks resting players after winning the NBA Cup on Tuesday. That and much more.

The Knicks return from their Cup Championship to face the Pacers, but are they resting their stars? Plus, a germ-aphobic office breakfast is on the way, the Dolphins drop Tua to third string for Quinn Ewers, and the Bears stadium search takes a surprise turn toward Indiana. We'll also talk Puka Nacua's referee conspiracy and the gear we just got from Hofstra and Fran Tarkenton.

Looks like the Knicks might not play up to four of their star players for the Pacers game. The Cup must've wore 'em out.

This week on Motherish, we're taking a moment to look back on five years of laughs, lessons, and yes… plenty of late-night recordings. From how far we've come to what we've learned along the way, this episode is all about reflection and gratitude. We're also talking about what's ahead: holiday break plans, how we're choosing to recharge and reset, and why rest (and guilt-free naps) are non-negotiable this season. Consider this your permission slip to slow down right alongside us.

Rest is a strategy — not a reward. And right now, I'm being incredibly intentional with how I'm resting so I can step into 2026 with clarity, grounded energy, and real momentum. In this honest behind-the-scenes episode, I'm sharing: ✨ Why rest is a business strategy — not self-care fluff Your next level requires capacity. Capacity requires space. Space requires rest. ✨ What I'm doing (and not doing) during my intentional rest window This is not collapse-rest. It's intentional, creative, cyclical rest. ✨ The 3 types of rest I'm prioritising to prepare for 2026 Emotional, mental, and energetic rest — and why all three matter for long-term success.

As we close out this episode—and this year—Not Your Final Destination takes a moment to pause, reflect, and reset.This final episode of the year is a reminder that growth doesn't always look loud, progress isn't always visible, and unfinished seasons don't mean failed ones. We reflect on the lessons, the detours, and the moments that shaped us, while looking ahead with hope, grace, and expectation for what's next.Whether this year brought clarity or questions, wins or waiting, this episode is an encouragement to honor how far you've come and trust the process of becoming. Because delays don't mean denial—and where you are right now is not where your story ends.We're pressing pause, not stopping. Resting, reflecting, and realigning for the year ahead.Thank you for being part of this journey.The journey continues—and this is still not your final destination.

Are you tired? Do you wonder when and if the demands on your time will ease? We know we need to carve out time to rest, yet it is an easy thing to trade for getting one more thing done. The truth is only as we trust God with our lives – the very moments of each day, will be able to let go of the work, the plans, the projects, the schedules, the demands that interrupt and the weariness of it all. God gives us permission to rest. It's a trust issue. Trusting God to hold our world together as we step off the merry-go-round and get our bearings once again.

From navigating health surprises to learning the difference between rest and true recharging, they explore how reflection and mindful self-care can transform stress into clarity.

Advent Day 12 is another strong beer. We're a little weary of quadruple IPAs. They usually overly sweet to mask the high alcohol flavor. Dutch brewers White Dog created Resting at the Bottom of the Ocean in collaboration with Brazilian Cervejaria Escafandrista.

Do you suffer from “resting misery face”? Many of us do, and in this episode of Bewildered, we’re diving into exactly why that is. A few hints: It has to do with the brain’s “default mode network,” our hardwired negativity bias, the cultural pressures to stay miserable and afraid, and how our imagination tends to conspire against us. The good news is that you can reclaim your “resting joy face” by questioning your thoughts and using curiosity and laughter to shift your mindset. Tune in to learn how!

Praise Series - Praise Is The Way Out Of The DarknessPsalm 150 “Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty firmament! Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his exceeding greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise him with timbrel and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud, clashing symbols! Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!”There is so much power in praising God, and the enemy knows that.  One day, I was talking with some of the ladies in my Encounter class about dryness in prayer and when we feel we are in the darkness.  Have you ever felt like that?  Have you ever felt like you are doing your part, praying to God, and yet you can't feel Him, you can't seem to find Him?  Have you ever felt like He has abandoned you?  You are not alone; this happens to everyone at some point.  We had a speaker at our conference who said that when we feel like God is pulling away, that is not a bad thing; it is actually a good thing.  Damian Stayne said during his talk that when we feel like God is pulling away from us, He is actually just stretching our heart muscle.  If we want to grow in our faith, in our trust, in our love of God, our heart muscles must grow too.  God is helping it to do that by gently pulling away at times and then coming closer.  During a discussion with my friends and classmates, we talked about what we do in the dark times.  One woman said she just had a few days where she felt alone.  In the previous days, she had felt very close to the Lord, and it felt amazing.  Then she entered a few days where she couldn't feel the Lord.  She felt alone.  She said she remembered hearing somewhere that when you are in the darkness, you should praise the Lord.  She decided, even though she didn't feel like it, she would praise the Lord, and in a few days, she came out of the darkness.I may have mentioned this before, but in case you haven't heard it, Mother Teresa was known for her love of Jesus.  She had a very personal, intimate encounter with Jesus on a train once, and it fortified her faith beyond words.  She loved Him.  When others met her, just by being around her, they came to love Jesus too.  Her love for Jesus was overflowing.  Mother Teresa also went through a dark time.  She would go into prayer time, and she couldn't pray; she didn't feel God anywhere.  There were times when she questioned if He existed.  She knew He did, because she had seen Him, yet she didn't feel as if He existed.  This dark period for her wasn't just a year or two; I believe it was more like 50 years.  I saw one place online that said, “For nearly 50 years, Mother Teresa endured what the church calls a 'dark night of the soul' — a period of spiritual doubt, despair, and loneliness that many of the great mystics experienced, her namesake St. Therese of Lisieux included.”Can you imagine that?  Fifty years of spiritual doubt, despair, and loneliness, and those around her did not know.  She did share this information with her spiritual director, but most of those around her would have said she was a happy person, so full of the Light of God.  She smiled often and spread God's joy to many others.  It makes me sad to think she didn't have that joy inside of her.  I pray that none of you listening to this podcast have to endure 50 years of suffering as she did.  You will probably have to endure some times of darkness, times when you feel lonely, you think God has abandoned you, and so on.  When this happens, remember this episode and praise God through it.I believe that praising God more is the answer to so many questions. It is the solution to so many of our problems.  I was praying one time while I was out for a run, and I asked God to tell me what I was doing that was different than others.  I asked Him to tell me why I was able to have such a deep trust in Him, and I really felt like He said it is because I praise Him so much.  I love to listen to praise and worship music.  Ever since I discovered Christian music, I have been in love with it and listen to it whenever I get the chance. Spending all this time praising God has definitely increased my faith. I have also had a practice of daily (or as close to daily as I can get) gratitude.  This has really made a difference, too.  I think both of these help train my mind and keep it focused on the things that are important.  They keep pointing me back to Jesus.If you find yourself enduring what the church calls the “Dark night of the soul,” try praising God through it.  I don't know a lot about the “Dark Night of the Soul,” but I don't think it is typical for it to last as long as it did for Mother Teresa of Calcutta.  I believe Damian said his lasted about 10 years.  However, you can also have dark periods of isolation that last just a few days, as my friend had a few weeks ago.  The timing of it all is up to God.  God has a purpose for this period of isolation, and only He knows when it has done its job.  I don't know that praising God while you are in the Darkness will get you out of the darkness any faster because God has His own timing.  I do believe that it will help you endure the darkness better.  I believe praising God is a great way to step outside your thoughts and focus on Him and all He has done for you.  I am going to read Psalm 150 to you again so you can hear the intensity with which the author of Psalm believes in praising the Lord.  I think the words of the Psalm are the best words to leave you with today.“Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty firmament! Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his exceeding greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise him with timbrel and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud, clashing symbols! Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!”Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you to bless all those listening to this episode today. Lord, we want to praise you and love you forever.  Lord, we ask that you be with everyone, even those going through that dark night of the soul.  I pray that you give them the strength they need to make it through to the other side.  We know that on the other side of that darkness is light.  We know it is not just light, but also growth and new treasures that you have for us on the other side.  We thank you, Lord, you are truly remarkable.  We know you never abandon us, and we love you for it!  We love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen.Thank you so much for joining me on this journey to walk boldly with Jesus.  I look forward to spending time with you again tomorrow.  Remember, Jesus loves you just as you are, and so do I! Have a blessed day!Today's Word from the Lord was received in July 2025 by a member of my Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group.

When Rest Feels Wrong: Why You Can't Relax & How to Feel Safe RestingDo you ever sit down to rest… and immediately feel tense, guilty, or like you “should” be doing something?In this episode of The Restored Minds Show, licensed therapist Matt Codde, LCSW explores why rest can actually feel unsafe for people living in chronic anxiety, stress, or high-performance mode. Matt explains how busyness becomes a persona, how overworking turns into emotional avoidance, and why your nervous system doesn't trust stillness — even when your life looks “successful” on the outside.If you feel restless when you slow down, or you only allow yourself to rest when you've “earned it,” this episode will help you understand what's really going on underneath and how to start re-teaching your body that it's safe to stop.

SUNDAY SERVICE

When high performance starts feeling heavy, it's often a sign you're carrying expectations God never asked you to hold. In this episode, Julie Holly helps high-capacity humans release pressure, reclaim peace, and rest their potential in God's presence.When success starts feeling heavy, the real weight is rarely your work — it's the expectations wrapped around your identity.Many high-capacity humans silently carry pressure that never came from God: responsibility they didn't choose, roles they didn't ask for, and internal standards shaped by other people's expectations.In this sacred Sunday episode, Julie Holly leads you into a deeper spiritual recalibration:Your potential is safe in God's hands — not the world's, not your environment's, not your own self-pressure.Drawing from the story of Moses, Julie reveals how calling was never meant to be a burdensome assignment but a shared journey. Moses didn't rise through self-reliance — he rose through partnership, presence, and support. And in gentle contrast, the story of Michael Jordan shows what potential looks like when pressure is carried alone — the strain, the internal cost, the exhaustion.This episode weaves together themes of burnout recovery, decision fatigue, role confusion, spiritual exhaustion, identity drift, and expectation fatigue — grounding them in biblical truth, psychological clarity, and nervous-system safety.Julie also highlights why ILR (the Identity-Level Recalibration Pathway) is different from mindset work or performance strategies:ILR transforms identity at the root — the shift that makes every other tool finally work again.If you've been carrying more than you were designed to hold, this episode will feel like exhaling after years of bracing.MICRO RECALIBRATION (PERSONAL)“Where am I carrying something God never asked me to carry?” Let one thing rise to the surface. Release it back into His hands.MICRO RECALIBRATION (TEAMS / LEADERSHIP)Ask:“What responsibilities are we holding out of pressure instead of purpose — and what would shift if we surrendered the weight instead of managing it?”If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

What if strength wasn't about doing more, but about offering yourself grace? In this episode, Jessica Colarco and Kelly discuss the pervasive feelings of guilt, particularly among women, and how to choose grace over guilt. They explore the importance of setting boundaries, practicing self-compassion, and redefining strength to include rest and self-care. The discussion also touches on parenting and the guilt that often accompanies it, emphasizing the need for self-acceptance and the understanding that worthiness is not tied to productivity. Inside This Conversation:  Guilt often sneaks into our everyday lives, especially for women. Burnout can manifest as quiet resentment and heaviness. Setting boundaries is a form of honesty and self-respect. Overcommitting leads to a version of ourselves that is not genuine. Resting is not laziness; it's a necessary part of self-care. Self-compassion helps counteract feelings of guilt. Grace allows us to acknowledge our worth without productivity. Parenting guilt can hinder our ability to teach resilience to our children. Choosing grace over guilt can redefine our understanding of strength. Practicing grace can create a ripple effect, encouraging others to do the same.

In this episode of the Wine and Gold Talk podcast, Ethan Sands, Chris Fedor and Jimmy Watkins dive into the NBA's $100,000 fine against the Cavaliers for resting Donovan Mitchell and Evan Mobley — and they don't hold back. They then break down why Houston's physical, slow-paced, smashmouth style is a true challenge for a Cleveland team still searching for consistency, struggling on the glass, and hearing its head coach repeatedly call the offense “clunky.” It's a fiery episode packed with honesty, frustration, and a hard look at whether the Cavs are ready for a “come to Jesus” moment against one of the league's toughest teams.

If slowing down feels wrong but your body is begging for rest, this episode is for you. In this episode, I'm talking to the woman who has always been the go-hard achiever — the early workouts, the hustle, the I-don't-need-rest mindset.  But now your body feels like it's pushing back, and slowing down feels uncomfortable or even scary. I've been there, and I want to help you make sense of what your body is trying to say. Instead of guessing or feeling guilty,  I'm giving you a simple, practical five-question check-in to help you know whether your body needs rest or whether gentle movement will actually make you feel better. Because in a healing season, both rest and movement are powerful — it's just about choosing the right one for the day you're in.  You'll learn why the signals you're feeling are a sign of recovery, not failure. I'll walk you through what this looks like in different phases of healing — from burnout, to rebuilding, to thriving again. We'll also talk about the mental side of this: letting go of the belief that discipline only counts when you push harder.  Resting doesn't make you weak. It makes you wiser. And the more you listen to your body, the faster your energy, hormones, and confidence return.  By the end of this episode, you'll have a tool you can use anytime you're unsure of what your body needs. This is how you build trust with yourself again — one decision at a time. So take a breath, tune in, and let's help your body feel safe and strong again.  Time Stamps: (1:17) Mood Lighting(2:02) Pulling Back From Exercise(5:47) Movement and Discipline(8:14) Your Hormones Are Recalibrating(9:59) #1: How Did I Sleep Last Night?(11:57) If You're Averaging 5-6 Hours of Sleep A Night(13:12) #2: My Stress Level From 1-10(14:32) #3: How Does My Body Feel Physically?(16:00) #4: What's My Emotional State?(17:41) #5: How Do I Think I'll Feel After?(21:56) Save This One For The Future---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Send us a textIn this week's Life of Love, Julie welcomes integrative health practitioner and high-achieving-woman, Chelsea McLeod. Together they pull back the curtain on the divine feminine, hormone health, and how to listen when your body is whispering (or screaming) for a different way.Chelsea shares her personal story of overachieving, chronic stress, a traumatic family event, and finally being diagnosed with PCOS and type 2 diabetes in her 20s — then choosing a path of true healing instead of numbing. She and Julie explore how our culture trains women to hang their worth on output, ignore their cycles, and normalize symptoms that are actually big hormonal red flags. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}You'll hear about:- Chelsea's journey from competitive athlete and corporate hustler to hormone healer- Why 4 out of 5 women may be dealing with hormonal imbalance without realizing it- Symptoms that are common **but not normal**: night waking, crazy PMS, bloating, hair loss, constipation, anxiety, feeling “fluffy,” infertility diagnoses, and more- How our industrial food system, chemicals, and seed oils quietly disrupt your hormones- The simple practice of becoming a “package turner” and reading labels with discernment- Easy daily tracking to understand your hormones:  - energy check-ins through the day  - mood swings  - sleep quality and 2–3 a.m. wakeups  - menstrual cycle patterns- How heart rate variability and resting heart rate can reflect your stress resilience- Using the phases of your cycle to guide workouts, social plans, and productivity (instead of fighting yourself)- Honoring your bleed, seeing menstruation as sacred, and bringing ritual back into everyday life- What it looks like to claim your divinity and step out of survival mode as a sovereign woman**Key Takeaways**- It's not you being “lazy” or “dramatic” — it's often your hormones trying to get your attention.  - Common symptoms are not the same as *normal*. Your body is designed to feel good.  - Healing hormones is a skill set, not a quick fix. You can learn it over time.  - Your cycle is one of your greatest superpowers once you know how to work with it.  - Resting, especially around your bleed and in your luteal phase, is not weakness — it's strategy.  - You don't have to burn yourself out to be valuable. Your divinity doesn't depend on your productivity.**Favorite Quotes**- “Women don't need more hacks, we need habits and skills.” – Chelsea  - “No, you don't ‘fix' your hormones. You *heal* your hormones.” – Julie  - “Sometimes we need to ritualize the mundane to reconnect with our feminine energy.” – Chelsea  - “No one else is going to crown you. Your divinity is yours to claim.” – Julie  If this conversation lands in your heart, that's your sign. Share it with a friend, revisit it around your next cycle, and let it be a loving reminder that you are not broken — you are divine, and your body is always speaking with you.Support the showLink to Support this Channel: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2153284/supporters/newJulie's Book: https://amzn.to/3K2ZS05Julie's Website for more information, comments or requests: https://lifeofloveandjoy.comI receive a small commission when you purchase from these links.
